    Sad thing is....there are still idiots on here that think Ramirez and Chavez won (well, I seriously dont think any of them have seen the fights...and they refuse to post round by rounds...FURTHER proving my point).

    I backed Toney in Toney vs Peter I so I am biased particularly given I would have won $38k had Toney got the decision

    Naturally, I knew non-robberies (just close fights that could've gone either way) would be mentioned, such as DLH-Whitaker, Jones-Tarver 1 and Mayweather-Castillo 1.

    Get the **** outta here with Jones-Tarver 1. Tarver spent too many rounds in the middle of the ring doing jack ****, waiting and staring, leary of Jones's bodywork. That's got to be one of the most exaggerated "controversial" decisions ever.

    Here are some REAL robberies:

    Escalera-Everett
    Nelson-Fenech 1
    Lewis-Holyfield 1
    Briggs-Foreman
    M. Spinks-Holmes 2

    i don't know about robbery, but I thought these weren't good decisions:
    Mosley vs. De La Hoya II
    De La Hoya vs. Ike Quartey
    Leonard vs. Hearns II
    Barrera vs. Morales I

    The one that MADE ME SEVERELY PISSED OFF, was

    Sturm vs. De La Hoya- I had it 11 rounds to 1. 4th round slightly in favor to De La Hoya.
    And I was very generous to the golden boy.

    That was a bad break, but I had the 2nd fight a draw between them so I guess it all worked out right.

    Golota/Ruiz was a very sloppy fight, then again what Ruiz fight isnt. I think Ruiz was knocked down twice in that match too, I thought Ruiz lost that one also. Stoney his manager is a funny ass dude, hes always yelling about something.

    Yes twice. And Normy got kicked out of Ruiz's corner.
